|Gottfred Hoem (12 October 1900 – 17 November 1979) was a Norwegian politician for the Labour Party.
He was born in Fræna Municipality. He took commercial education in Kristiania at Wang School. He worked in Molde from 1915, and served as director of transport in Møre og Romsdal county from 1941 to 1946 and director-general in Norges rutebileieres forbund from 1946 to 1968. From 1952 to 1968 he was a board member of the Norway Travel Association.
He was a member of the municipal council for Molde Municipality from 1928 to 1937, serving as deputy mayor briefly in 1931 and 1937.
